Cyber Resiliency of Weapon Systems-ACS
Abstract
This program funds activities at the Cyber Resiliency Office for Weapon Systems (CROWS), which provides cyber capabilities and acquisition support to weapon system programs across the Air Force. CROWS increases cyber resiliency of Air Force weapon systems to maintain mission effective capability under adverse conditions. Its goals are to bake cyber resiliency into new weapons systems and mitigate critical vulnerabilities in fielded weapon systems. To meet these goals, this program addresses cyber resiliency and security gaps in three primary activities. The first activity is to develop systems security engineering tools, techniques and procedures as well as associated training and education to build cyber expertise within acquisition workforce, to include developing a common secure environment to enable effective sharing of cyber intelligence and vulnerability information across multiple acquisition programs. It also includes identifying emerging technologies for further development and prototyping to posture Air Force weapon systems to counter emerging threats. The second activity is to conduct threat informed weapon systems solution analysis, identify and prioritize vulnerabilities and identify, develop and present courses of action to develop materiel and non-materiel mitigation trade space. The third activity is to design mitigation strategies and prototype mitigation solutions to critical vulnerabilities, with emphasis on those that affect multiple weapon systems. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver CROWS weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F. In FY 2021, Project 642812 is renamed from System Security Engineering to Acquisition/System Security Engineering. In FY 2021, the entirety of work under Project 642810, Cyber Workforce Development, and Project 642816, Agile/Adaptable Standards, will be transferred to Project 642812, Acquisition/System Security Engineering, to better align scope and resources associated with Cyber Resiliency of Weapon Systems activities. In FY 2021, Project 642834 is renamed from Mission Assurance for Fielded Systems to Mitigations. In FY 2021, Project 642836 is renamed from Mission Thread Analysis to Mission Risk Analysis. The FY 2021 funding request was reduced by $4.622 million to account for availability of prior year execution balances. As directed in the FY 2018 NDAA, Sec 825, amendment to PL 114-92 FY 2016 NDAA, Sec 826 Penalty for Cost Overruns, the FY 2019 Air Force penalty total is $50.0M. The calculated percentage reduction to each research, development, test and evaluation and procurement account will be allocated proportionally from all programs, projects, or activities under such account. This effort is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P), because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Decrease in FY 2019 of $3.000 million is due to reprogramming for funding AFLCMC/HNC Information Systems Security Program (ISSP) Trusted System Network (TSN) requirement in PE 0303140F. Decrease in FY 2021 of $4.752 million is due to Department of Defense inflationary adjustments and to account for availability of prior year execution balances.
